Another rather busy week! The forum slowly gains speed thanks to a few very active members – thanks for that! As a result I’ve spend a reasonable amount of time writing on the forum [and also answering comments here on the blog].

Some of the discussion ended with me refactoring most of the plugin UI code and also (as a precondition) the ZenMagick admin pages code. The result is that now all admin pages are displayed using the same MVC code (or variations of it) as the storefront is using.

The benefit is that ZenMagick admin pages now only consist of the view portion and are also organized similar to what a storefront theme looks like [ content/view folder, etc.].

The downside of this is that all plugins need to be redone. I am right in the middle of that and in most cases it is just changing some class names to follow the new naming conventions. Plugins with admin UI are a bit harder, though.

I expect to get through most of the plugins within the next week. A new snapshot should be ready sometime this weekend, including the already converted plugins.
